WAG 21-02-06-d: Pay-After-Performance Hours

Example 1: Ms. S receives $509 per month in TANF benefits for herself and 4 children. She also receives $465 in SNAP benefits. There is no cash or SNAP recoupment amount deducted. Her total benefits are $974. Dividing the total benefits ($974) by the state minimum wage ($8.25) = 118. Place Ms. S in Pay-After-Performance activities for 118 hours each month ÷ 4 = 30 hours per week.

Example 2: Ms. O receives $292 per month in TANF benefits for herself and one child. She also receives $190 in SNAP benefits. There is no cash or SNAP recoupment. Her total benefits are $482. Dividing the total benefits ($482) by the minimum wage ($8.25) = 58. Place Ms. O in Pay-After-Performance activities 58 hours each month ÷ 4 = 15 hours per week.

Example 3: Ms. X receives $217 for herself and 3 children. Her normal cash benefit is $435. Ms. X is sanctioned for the 2nd time for not cooperating with child support. She has now cooperated with child support, but the Level 2 sanction period has not ended. She also receives $380 in SNAP benefits. There is no cash or SNAP recoupment amount deducted. Divide the total benefits ($435 + $380 = $815) by the minimum wage ($8.25) = 98. Place Ms. X in Pay-After-Performance activities 98 hours each month ÷ 4 = 25 hours each week.
